Who We Are
Clare Housing is a Minneapolis-based non-profit agency that provides affordable housing with services to 300 neighbors living with HIV/ AIDS. Those who live with us have often experienced systemic and individual harm and discrimination, so we commit to ensuring that living at Clare Housing feels healing, empowering, dignifying, and connective. This goal is not achievable without the partnership of neighbors and friends from the broader community (such as you!).
The Opportunity
Residents in our Scattered Site program receive a rental subsidy and live independently in homes throughout the Twin Cities Metro area. The program provides a high amount of dignified choice and independence, which sometimes means folks move to communities that are not conveniently located to resources in the city centers (food shelves, county offices, etc.).
In particular, we have many participants who are members of The Aliveness Project, a partner organization serving neighbors living with HIV. Aliveness runs an excellent, high-quality food shelf in South Minneapolis, which some of our participants aren’t easily able to get to.
Help folks access this amazing resource by serving as a Transportation Aide! Our case management staff will schedule food shelf appointments with residents, and you’ll provide the wheels to get there (along with companionship and connection, of course!).
